Somewhere More Familiar - Sister Hazel (Universal) Quintet Sister Hazel offer straight-ahead rock pleasures and steel sound on their solid debut disc, Somewhere More Familiar.
Featuring the hit singles All For You and Happy, the album is capable of striking sparks. Songs such as Just Remember, Look To The Children, Wanted It To Be and Think About Me are of top quality.
A great intro for modern rockers.
I Blame The Government - The Carter USM (Cooking Vinyl) The trio who created classic albums like 101 Damnations, 1992 - The Love Album, Post Historic Monsters and Worry Bomb, and numerous hits such as Sheriff Fatman, Lean On Me, I Won't Fall Over, Lenny And Terrence and Let's Get Tattoos, are back with their latest.
The album's lyrical content is unique and interesting, but memorable tunes are few and far between. Highlights are the up-tempo rock track 23:59 End Of The World, the feel-good anthem, The Undertaker, and The Hippy Protest Singer, Power Pop and Sweetheart Sugar Baby.
Comparsa - Deep Forest (Sony Music) After the elegant Sweet Lullaby, and poignant gloom of Boheme, Deep Forest are back with this irresistible Latin/African groove album.
